On 3 July 1986 55033 + 55004 + 55032 were on a diagram that included the 18.30 from Stratford-upon-Avon to Birmingham Moor Street. I lived near to the line in those days and had seen the train arrive from my kitchen window so had grabbed a camera, had a quick chat with the signalman and made my way to this spot with the gasholders, still in use at the time, and the middle starter signal prominent in the picture. The leading unit, 55033, was the one selected to receive Midline livery a few months later. Peter Tandy.

55033 approaching Stourbridge Town from Stourbridge Junction in May 1987. It can be clearly seen that this was a double track at one time although latterly run as 2 separate routes for the goods yard and passenger station. Stephen Burdett.
In the 1980s it was decided to brand the local rail network Midline. It was short lived but class 121 bubble car 55033 was given an unique livery and is seen here leaving Stourbridge Town for Stourbridge Junction in May 1987. It in fact was working the branch on the last day of these units on it in 1992. Stephen Burdett.
Pressed Steel Suburban Single Car Class 121 DMU 55033 in Midline livery heads a Dorridge train while Gloucester Class 122 Single Car 55005 arrives with a Leamington train on the adjacent platform at Birmingham Moor Street on 13 May 1987. At the time single cars were being added to 3-car sets to raise the power to weight ratio. Moor St terminus closed in September 1987 when the adjacent through platforms to Birmingham Snow Hill were opened. It lay derelict until 2003 when Chiltern Railways reopened two of the original three platforms and renovated the original booking hall to supplement capacity when the Bull Ring development opened. The building under construction is the Pavillions Shopping Centre which was recently rebuilt as the largest Primark store in Europe. Chris Morrison.
